quoriv 1.5.1

Open-source terminal AI coding agent with multi-model support (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Ollama, vLLM).

Quoriv

An open-source, terminal-based AI coding agent. Model-agnostic. Locally-runnable. Fully extensible.

Quoriv is a Python-built coding agent that lives in your terminal and works directly inside your repository. It plans, reads and writes files, runs shell commands, executes tests, searches your codebase, and delegates work to specialized sub-agents — under a permission system you control. It is built on DeepAgents and LangGraph, and works with OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, Ollama (local), and self-hosted vLLM endpoints.

Status: v1.0 released. pip install quoriv — see the docs site for usage.

Why Quoriv

Quality	What it means
Model-agnostic	One config flag swaps between OpenAI / Anthropic / Gemini / Ollama / vLLM. No vendor lock-in.
Local-first option	Run entirely offline with Ollama or a private vLLM server. Nothing leaves your machine.
Repo-native	Lives in your terminal, edits your real files, runs your real tests. No web upload, no copy-paste.
Permission-aware	Multi-tier modes (read-only / ask / auto / yolo) so you choose the autonomy level.
Extensible	Both MCP plugins (external) and a Python plugin API (internal).
Memory	Per-project + per-user + per-session memory. The agent remembers across runs.
Cost-aware	Per-task model routing: cheap fast model for trivial work, strong model for hard reasoning.
Open-source	Apache 2.0. Yours to read, modify, fork, and self-host.

Installation

Note: Quoriv is not yet on PyPI. Once Phase 0 is complete, install with:

pip install quoriv

For development:

git clone https://github.com/BurhanHussain1/quoriv.git
cd quoriv
pip install -e ".[dev,ast]"

Quick start

# Configure your API key (stored in OS keychain, never on disk)
quoriv config set openai

# Start a session in the current repo
quoriv chat

# Run with a specific permission mode
quoriv chat --mode read-only        # investigation only
quoriv chat --mode ask              # default — prompts before each risky tool
quoriv chat --mode auto             # auto-runs safe tools, prompts for risky ones
quoriv chat --mode yolo             # autonomous (use with care)

# Switch model
quoriv chat --model openai:gpt-4.1
quoriv chat --model anthropic:claude-sonnet-4-6
quoriv chat --model ollama:qwen2.5-coder:32b

---

Configuration

Quoriv reads two TOML files (project config overrides global):

• Global — ~/.quoriv/config.toml
• Project — .quoriv/config.toml in your repo

Example:

[model]
default = "openai:gpt-4.1"
fast    = "openai:gpt-4o-mini"      # used for trivial / routing
strong  = "openai:gpt-4.1"          # used for hard reasoning

[permissions]
mode = "ask"

[ui]
theme = "dark"

API keys live in the OS keychain via keyring — never in plaintext.

Built-in tools

Category	Tools
Files	read, write, edit, multi_edit, ls, glob, grep
Shell	execute (with sandboxing + permission gating)
Code intel	find_symbol, go_to_definition, find_references (tree-sitter)
Git	status, diff, log, commit, branch, blame
Tests	run_tests (language-aware: pytest / jest / cargo / go test)
Web	web_search, web_fetch
Patch	apply_diff (safe unified-diff apply)

Custom tools: write a Python plugin or connect any MCP server.

---

Permission modes

Mode	Read	Write	Shell	Use case
read-only	auto	blocked	blocked	Investigation, code review
ask	auto	prompt	prompt	Default — full control
auto	auto	auto-safe / prompt-risky	prompt-risky	Power-user productivity
yolo	auto	auto	auto	Trusted workflows only

Path protection (e.g., .env, ~/.ssh) is enforced in every mode.
